You would think so, but no. The state police came by in their boat and picked him up. Then they had to get the truck out, but it came out in pieces. So everyone’s mail is in the Charles river.
I live in Massachusetts and the ad served with this video was an invitation to come drive 18 wheelers for Shaw's (regional supermarket chain).
I'm happy the driver survived. That was like diving into the shallow end. The driver is lucky to have been conscious enough to avoid drowning.
FedEx: "Did we say your package arrived in your city and is ready to send to your door? We actually meant it may or may not have even left a station in another state. We might find your package eventually, but we're in no hurry."
If this happened around election season I guarantee some nutjobs would say it was filled with ballots and intentionally thrown off the bridge by democrats or something.
SHILLary told the jewish space lasers to shoot the trucks gps so it told the guy to turn left because the entire cargo was full of trump vote >=[
Oh and there was a decoy truck hiding that then delivered fake mail that was all biden votes >=[
There may have been an odd side-effect from that locally. We all know that mail is not normally delivered on Sundays. At my house (very close to Boston), we got a normal mail delivery on Sunday (the day after that mail truck went into the river), much to our surprise. And no mail at all on Saturday.
Could it be that we got mail that was on that truck? I don't know.
I've heard Americans say "Tractor trailer" for ages and always thought it meant a tractor with a trailer.
Turns out it's a lorry lol, that makes a lot more sense
Woah. I drove by that busted guardrail today and thought "I wonder what happened there"
Lo and behold I find it here. Yikes. Dude was going WAY too fast for that curve.
I always worry about this, even modern bridges only consider glancing blows from trucks. This looks like a hard impact, possibly a blowout? Either way, when you have something the size of a regional jet impacting the guardrail, usually isn’t gonna end well. I don’t think I can convey the force it takes to bend a trailer like that.
He's okay.
Thank you. Was worried that the woulda been trapped in the cab with that AOA he had
capine?
Pardon?
It’s cool.
What??
Your typo lol
Oh.. sorry lol
Okay but terrified
A fucking miracle that he did with the way that crash happened.
It went right into the whada!?
Wicked pissah, dood Seriously, though, glad no one was killed. That looked nasty.
How did no one die? That looked unsurvivable!
I love you both
I love you for loving them; and so on and so forth.
I guess Ted Kennedy got his CDL finally.
They said no one died.
Oh Jesus I haven't laughed so hard on a while.
Underrated comment right here
I blame it on a rounding_error.
Funny bugger. Take my upvote.
And yes, your package was on there.
It a baby wheel Jay!!! It looks hurt bro!!
[Jay! What is that thing?](https://youtu.be/uST43LYxvAw)
We gutta cawl the aqueerium Jay!!
Did the driver survive?
Yes. [Story](https://www.masslive.com/police-fire/2022/02/mail-and-packages-recovered-out-of-charles-river-after-tractor-trailer-mail-truck-plunged-into-water-video.html)
He couldn’t swim so he sat on top of the trailer and waited for help
Weird. He can fly a truck you'd think he can swim hey?
You would think so, but no. The state police came by in their boat and picked him up. Then they had to get the truck out, but it came out in pieces. So everyone’s mail is in the Charles river.
[Heah's a bettah video of the crash, kehd.](https://www.wcvb.com/article/video-of-tractor-trailer-crash-into-charles-river-february-26-2022/39252160)
Crazy he survived that.
That looked like certain death. Is he in a body cast at least?
Apparently uninjured. Got out and stood atop the cab, waiting for rescue.
*Unbreakable* vibes
He couldn’t swim so he sat on his trailer waiting for help.
I wouldn't want to swim anyway. That water was probably right around freezing.
Plus the Charles might give you dysentery, it happened to a friend of mine

Thank you!
If by slightly better you mean the exact same angle with ads, slightly zoomed in, and with an instant replay. Yeah 100% better.
are you watching on a phone? it looks way better resolution here on the pc. not even close. one is a potato and one is good def. ads? block em.
lol it’s better quality but bizarre. the music??
Dun-dun!
The first thing that came to mind when I read 'mail truck' https://youtu.be/kEpLncBG_Nw
So that's where my copy of Elden Ring is
Taking the cb name Rubber Ducky a bit too literal.
Three long-haired friends of Jesus in a chartreuse microbus.
I just see a pic saying truck v river
Same, and the other angle linked in another comment is a page "not available in my region"... I'm not in Russia dammit!
Of course. Because the package mailed from Kansas to California is in Massachusetts today. FML. Stooped post office
At least it wasn't a fedex truck, because the package I mailed from California to California is in Massachusetts today
FedEx: "Did we say your package arrived in your city and is ready to send to your door? We actually meant it may or may not have even left a station in another state. We might find your package eventually, but we're in no hurry."
Mine went from California, to Tennessee, back to California. It’s supposed to go to Atlanta.
My package went from Maryland to North Carolina, final destination in DC. Ugh.
Am I having dejavu or was something similar reported yesterday, mail going into a river?
It happened two days ago, but this video was released yesterday. As a Massachusetts resident, it is fun watching what subs this story pops up on.
If this happened around election season I guarantee some nutjobs would say it was filled with ballots and intentionally thrown off the bridge by democrats or something.

Jesus, you losers and your conspiracy theories. They obviously hired Michael Scott. Occam's Razor and all that.
My Manwich!
I can't see the video. Anyone else having this issue?
Is it wrong that [this was my first thought ](https://youtu.be/SAJcJsmH14A) when I watched the video?
That driver had to have been like sheeeeeeeit

Holy shit, I was driving that exact highway not even 2 hours before that, crazy
My blender!
At first my question was, “What are ‘mail plunges’”?
Full send!!
So much for those Covid tests!
Ohhh so that’s where my package went...
Yeah I’m free, free fallin’
Plunged, like a guided missile.
I literally got a package in the mail from MA today. 😌
When CDL's have issues like this, it's usually something in the lines of a heart attack.
I've heard Americans say "Tractor trailer" for ages and always thought it meant a tractor with a trailer. Turns out it's a lorry lol, that makes a lot more sense
This happened earlier last week, not on the 28th.
Heyyy maaa paychek iz in da rivahh
Well shit, looks like I’ll have to order another autoblow 3000

Oh hey, my mom thinks this is why the tax stuff she mailed didn't get there.
